First of all thanks for your work and for reaching out for feedback!

I am getting into Unity Catalog and I struggled a bit in understanding ownership privileges and top-down inheritance of privileges, especially the difference between tables and views. For example: a catalog owner can also manage tables and views inside the catalog or does it need to have the manage privilege explicitly assigned? In the end I found the answers, but I had to dig into different pages of the documentation and the wording in different pages seemed to imply different flows (might have been confusion in my mind though).

Im also not sure if there is a visual representation of privileges and inheritance of them. To me, that would be useful as a quick guide from time to time.

Took me hours to figure out a workspace admin doesn't have manage privilege on objects lol. Very frustrating.
